Verböten

'A new musical inspired by Chicago's own young punks . . . with music and lyrics by Jason Narducy and book by playwright Brett Neveu.

Chicago-based guitarist Jason Narducy started a punk rock band in Evanston in 1982. "I was 11 years old and it felt incredible to write original songs and play them with my friends. We all had our own issues at home but we found love and support in our little group. We were Verböten."

Premiering with The House Theatre of Chicago in January at the Chopin Theatre in Chicago.
